RE: DRAFT: Nov 18 (Combine: Sep 28 - Oct 16) | Mavs get #18 & #31 - KillerLeft - 09-26-2020 I mean, it seems like I'm arguing against the kid, and I don't mean to. If you can get a player at #31 who eventually comes off the bench to do what DP and WCS do, only cheaper, that's a good pick. If he ends up doing it better than they do, that's a GREAT pick. I guess what you guys are seeing that I'm not is his potential fit next to KP as a starter. If I've gotten the wrong idea about that, I apologize.

TBey was actually listed as a GUARD last year (believe it or not) but had only two guys bigger than him that played significant minutes on the CO roster (Battey 6'8" and Siewert 6"10). 2) TBey is a better defender in college than DFS was at the same time, IMO (and the numbers back that up). One could make a very strong case that from almost day one TBey would be a better defender than DFS (once he knows the scheme). TBey was the defensive player of the year in the PAC16. 3) DFS shot LOTS more threes in college and has that going for him. But DFS has struggled in the NBA shooting the three until this year. TBey's shooting form in my opinion is significantly better than DFS who doesn't have the cleanest form. 4) I am not sure what dribbling you want from TBey if he is in the Mavs offense....?

Sure, he might be able to put the three ball into his arsenal one day but he hasn't to this point which makes it tough to project an NBA role for him on both ends of the court. I agree that the defensive/athletic upside is there, but if you suck at shooting then Carlisle will either force you to do it anyway (can be hard on a player's confidence) or plug you into the roll man-role and then you're suddenly competing with Powell or WCS for minutes. Good luck with that. Or, they could work with him and develop him like they did DFS. Especially if they nail him at 31. J. Smith is going lottery. I take T. Bey over all of the other guys you mentioned, running away.

If Toppin falls to 18, it's because he didn't have that value. And of course he won't. He's more in the category of, "I hope the Mavs wouldn't be so phenomenally stupid as to waste assets trading up for yet another stooge who can't play defense." WRT your other comments, I did say it's rough.

TBey was actually listed as a GUARD last year (believe it or not) but had only two guys bigger than him that played significant minutes on the CO roster (Battey 6'8" and Siewert 6"10). I agree with some of this, but not all of it. I agree that DFS is a successful example of an NBA player who has had to transform his game to make it as a pro. Most players can't, in the time given to them to accomplish this. Took DFS a WHILE to accomplish this, and I don't think any player will get that much developmental rope here for a while, now that the goal is the 2nd round or better, and not just winning more than 30 games. I DON'T think Bey would have to do this, because I think he looks (in those videos) like a GREAT modern NBA big, which DFS wouldn't have been (probs why he wasn't drafted, given your note about how he played in college). You COULD try to put him through the changes DFS had to go through, but instead, I bet he'll be drafted by a team who wants to play him as a big. Seems like a less risky path to me. We'll see!

Really intrigueing player Imo, I think he'd be phenomenal off the bench here with KP here & there. Such a great shooter. Downside: he also could be the next John Jenkins. He looks like he put a ton of work into his body although I question his handle/passing abilities a bit for an offense-first guard like him.

How does this get the Mavs closer to beating the best in the league?

Really intrigueing player Imo But realistically, none of the kids we'll select will make the difference for us next year. So I remain a bpa-guy. Drafting for fit makes sense when you're really, really close (which we aren't).

Villanova-product, great size, great shooting, even some post skills. He's probably not as good a defender on the next level as some might think (not a great athlete) but to me he's like a wing-version of Brunson. You just know you'll most likely get a really productive pro for a long time.(09-26-2020, 01:57 PM)Kammrath Wrote: #18 S. Bey Trade up from #31 to ??? for T.

I'm all for having young guys on rookie deals who can eventually contribute, but the Mavs have greater needs. My take is, you want as close to plug and play as you can get. This year's Herro would be great. If the Mavs don't believe that the guy they would get at #18 would crack the top 8 rotation in year one, then there's no way I keep that pick, because you can't afford to. Too many holes in this roster. Paradoxically, it looks like my biggest divergence from you is in terms of where we are. I believe that both of these are true: 1) we *are* really close, and 2) we have a lot of holes. Confusing? Cherchez le Luka.

TBey is MUCH better as a perimeter defender. You sure? I'm not. You might be right! (maybe the 20th time I've typed that now). SBey has ALL of the tools needed to succeed as a wing in the NBA, as the scout in that video goes to great lengths to point out. He seems smart, too, and that's important to me. We can't be SURE how good any of these dudes will be, tbh. I just like the combination of all things SBey brings to the table. TBH, I am bringing bias into the conversation. Full disclosure on that. I've just seen so many fans get excited by the idea of a great 6'4" collegiate off guard or SF playing point guard in the NBA because "his size will be such an advantage there!" that I've developed a healthy hatred of that type of thinking. To be fair, it DOES work out sometimes. There are lurkers reading this who believe that a lineup of Boban, KP, DP, DFS and Luka is the best option Carlisle has at his disposal, and can't even fathom why that wouldn't work. They're STILL pissed that Dirk was moved from 3 to 4 back in the day. All these years later, there's Jae Crowder in the conference finals, playing the 4. When he was here, people wanted to make him a 2. I know you are not one of those, I'm just naturally predisposed to hit the BS button on position change projections due to size.

If that's true, I might have to put him farther down my draft board. That SBey doesn't have the athleticism or elite footspeed to be a great defender? His low steals and blocks numbers are just one example of this. SBey is higher on draft boards because he REALLY expanded his offensive game in his sophomore year AND offense is GOLD in the NBA. Defense is an afterthought, especially in the draft. SBey has MUCH more intrigue in his offensive game than TBey. But frankly for me, SBey's shot being out in front of his body gives me more pause than TBey's form, which again shows a lot of potential to me. |
